Brighten up any day with our collection of 50+ rainbow coloring sheets! There is just something about a fresh box of crayons and a big arching rainbow that puts everyone in a good mood.
I wanted to make sure this collection wasn’t just fifty versions of the same thing. You’ll find everything from classic rainbows with fluffy clouds to trendy boho designs that look great on a bedroom wall. I even threw in some magical scenes with unicorns and fun “kawaii” faces that my niece absolutely loves.
Whether you need a quick activity for a rainy afternoon or just want to add some color to your fridge, these free rainbow coloring pages are ready to go. Just scroll down, find the one that makes you smile, and click to print.
Rainbow Styles in Our Collection
I didn’t just stop at the standard “arch in the sky” drawing. I tried to cover every style I could think of because variety is key. Obviously, you have the Classic Rainbow, which is the traditional arc usually connecting two clouds. It’s the one everyone expects and loves.
But lately, the boho rainbow coloring page style has been huge. These are the modern, stacked arches you see in nursery decor, usually colored in muted pastels or earth tones. They are super relaxing to color. I also included the popular rainbow with clouds coloring page(some with happy suns) and fun variations like double rainbows or rainbows shaped like hearts.
For the kids who like things adorable, the cute rainbow coloring page designs feature rainbows with smiling faces and cartoon eyes. They are impossible to color without grinning yourself.
Rainbows with Magical Friends
A rainbow by itself is great, but a rainbow with a best friend is even better. That is why I paired so many of these with other characters. The rainbow unicorn coloring page is probably the most popular download I have (check out our full unicorn coloring pages collection if that’s your vibe).
You’ll also find designs featuring fairies fluttering around the arches. (We have a whole hub for fairy coloring pages too). I made sure to include rainbows over pretty landscapes with mountains and meadows, plus some with butterflies for the nature lovers.
For the holidays, look for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, which is a total hit for St. Patrick’s Day.
Learn the Rainbow Colors
One of the coolest things about these rainbow coloring pages for kids is that they are secretly educational. Coloring a rainbow is the absolute best way to teach the order of colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet.
I always tell parents to use the name “Roy G. Biv” to help kids remember the order. It makes it a fun game. But hey, if your toddler wants to make a rainbow that is entirely pink, purple, and glitter? Let them go for it. Creativity is just as important as getting the science right.
Easy Rainbows for Little Artists
If you have a toddler, you know that intricate lines equal frustration. That is why I created a whole bunch of easy rainbow coloring pages. These feature huge, simple arcs with thick outlines that act like bumpers for stray crayons.
The simple rainbow coloring page designs usually just have three or four big stripes and maybe two big clouds. They are perfect for ages 2-5 who are just learning to hold a marker. The rainbow coloring pages for toddlers with the smiling faces are usually the big winners here because they are friendly and not overwhelming.
Rainbow Crafts & Activities
Don’t let these pages just sit in a pile when you’re done. There are so many ways to use printable rainbow coloring pages. My favorite idea is to cut them out and tape them to a sunny window. The sunlight makes the colors glow like stained glass.
Teachers often use these rainbow coloring sheets for classroom weather units (the “rainbow after the rain” lesson) or for Pride month activities to celebrate diversity. You can also print a bunch, cut them out, and string them together to make a colorful garland for a party.
How to Download
I keep things simple around here. No weird sign-up forms or email lists. Just click on the image you want to color, and the high-quality PDF will open right up.
From there, you can hit print immediately or save it to your phone or computer for later. These free printable rainbow coloring pages work on any device and print cleanly on standard paper.

What rainbow styles are included?
I tried to include a huge mix. You’ll find the classic arching rainbows with clouds, but also the trendy boho/modern style rainbows that are super popular right now. There are cute “kawaii” rainbows with faces, double rainbows, and plenty of scenes featuring unicorns, fairies, and nature backgrounds.

What are the colors of the rainbow in order?
The official order is Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. A great trick to remember this is the name “Roy G. Biv.” It’s a fun thing to teach while coloring, but honestly? There are no rules in art. If you want a rainbow made of different shades of blue, go for it.
